“Man flees in terror from the floods And kills, and rapes and lies in blood And spilling blood by mankinds hands Will stain and bitter many lands

“Man flees in terror from the floods
And kills, and rapes and lies in blood
And spilling blood by mankinds hands
Will stain and bitter many lands

The dragon’s tail is but a sign
For mankind’s fall and man’s decline.
And before this prophecy is done
I shall be burned at the stake, at one
My body singed and my soul set free
You think I utter blasphemy!
You’re wrong. These things have come to me
This prophecy will come to be.”

“Apocalypticism rises and falls with economic and political conditions on the ground,” said Stephen Prothero, chairman of the religion department at Boston University. “Give a culture some leisure time and excess income and they’ll forget about the end of the world pretty fast.

“Apocalypticism rises and falls with economic and political conditions on the ground,” said Stephen Prothero, chairman of the religion department at Boston University. “Give a culture some leisure time and excess income and they’ll forget about the end of the world pretty fast. But mass an army at the border, and prophesies of the end of times will spike just as quickly.” While the Mayans aren’t normally known as major players on the religious scene, beliefs in the end of the world, or the world to come, are common themes across most major faith traditions. “Our fears about the end of the world are fairly universal,” Prothero said. “What changes is the form those fears take.”

[EDITOR'S NOTE: This was almost too far out even for this website. But, Wolfe said, "Good, print it!"]

After reading a story on CNN about how there are a percentage of people who still believe that we did not land on the Moon, I felt I had to set the record straight. Here are a few facts:

The Breatharians and those who practice Inedia do not go far enough. We were born from Dark Matter, during an immense Solar Flare aeons ago (And the kind which will destroy the Earth in 2012 – if Planet X doesn’t get here first.). We lived, free and happy, needing only sunlight for sustenance, and having all of space in which to roam. Then a few evil amongst us mixed anti-matter into our sunlight. Anti-matter doesn’t destroy our kind, it just makes us feel negative about things. When we were feeling our most negative, they convinced us to chain ourselves to this planet, and taught us the unecessary, but hard to break, habits of eating, sleeping, breathing, needing water, etc.

The claims for 21 December 2012 cover a lot of ground.

The claims for 21 December 2012 cover a lot of ground. They range from nuclear holocaust to Harmonic Convergence of cosmic energy flowing through the earth, cleansing it and raising it to a higher level of vibration, and along the way they include the death of two-thirds of humanity and the north and south poles will split – you get the picture.

But there are two problems with this.

First, when a calendar comes to the end of a cycle, it just rolls over into the next cycle. In our Western society, every year 31 December is followed, not by the End of the World, but by 1 January. So 13.0.0.0.0 in the Mayan calendar will be followed by 0.0.0.0.1 – or good-ol 22 December 2012, with only a few shopping days left to Christmas.And the second problem is that it is always remarkably difficult to make predictions, especially about the future, and things that havent happened yet.

The Mayan calendar doesn’t end in 2012; rather, a new cycle begins then, rather like an odometer reaching 100,000 miles. It does not appear that the solar cycle coming up will be a particularly active one, and it looks like it will peak in 2013 rather than 2012. The solar system will [...]]]>

The Mayan calendar doesn’t end in 2012; rather, a new cycle begins then, rather like an odometer reaching 100,000 miles. It does not appear that the solar cycle coming up will be a particularly active one, and it looks like it will peak in 2013 rather than 2012. The solar system will not be moving through the plane of the Milky Way for a few million years. So don’t waste a lot of worry on 2012!

Just what is this formation that appeared so close to Silbury Hill telling us? Summer 2009 has been another treasure trove of crop circle formations and they just keep getting better and more interesting. We have previously featured articles on the Phoenix and Dragonfly formations (which appeared in the same field) as well as the amazing Jellyfish formation found nearby. On July 5 a Mayan style crop circle formation appeared near the ancient and mysterious Silbury Hill, which is the tallest prehistoric man-made mound in Europe and is near Avebury, Wiltshire. Even though mainstream media spends a lot of time trying to debunk crop circles, the majority of formations that appear in England near neolithic sites are never proven as hoaxes; they are simply created by forces that we currently do not understand.
